West Ham put in audacious £50million bids for Raphinha and Kalvin Phillips in the January transfer window and former Hammer Glen Johnson believes they should try again in the summer.
Leeds United rejected the approaches for the star duo leaving West Ham empty handed as the transfer window drew to a close but the Hammers interest has not ended. David Moyes decided against bringing in players to pad out the squad with the manager intent on only adding players that can challenge for starting spots to his group.
Johnson believes that West Ham should look to prise away Leeds United's key men again this summer but not as replacements for Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen.
